Warm Up Tsunami
This tragedy is very bad i mean look at all the homes and people it has effected, lots of people were left dead. The bad thing is photgraphers shot some great pictures out of this like the two i have posted above. The top picture has the style shot from point of view and the second is repetition and pattern.

Touching People
1. I really like how the pictures flow together but some of the pictures look a little funny to me like the ones with two guys, No offense its just some give off a weird vibe.
2. I would totally do it just to see the reaction of the other person because this could be a classic picture you never know.
3. I'm not sure because this one was very creative.
4. All I can see is simplicity and basic stuff but i like the approaches the photographer took.

Mag Cover Types
1. Early Magazine Cover- Painting
2. The Poster Magazine- Very few words not built to work with picture. picture is the most dominate piece; visual appealing. Cool photo or famous person. Diss- Boring doesn't say much
3. Pictures Married to Type- Characteristics of the magazine is that the words don't cover the photo. Words relate to whats on the cover and tells us what we should see inside the magazine. Picture works together and helps each other out. Diss- May not be appealing to everyone No multiple points of entry.
4. In The Forest Of Words- Lots and lots of words organized in head lines and sub-headlines. The headlines are different sizes. Different colors, and has multiple points of entry. The picture is the most important, words come second. Diss-Words to Cluttered and it takes away from the actual picture
Stuff that should be on my mag cover:
Title

Portraits and self-portrait tips and ideas
Get Closer
Anticipating Behavior, Familiar Subjects
I really like that they caught the sky also the fields of the cranberries it was a simple but really colorful shot. The second picture is really nice because of the background.

Self Portrait
The reason i like this picture is because it's really zoomed in on the subject and also the subject is really scary looking. Also it was the only one of a million probably had the same kind of feel to it which is really cool.
Casual Portrait
To me honestly casual pictures are boring so i only found one picture that i really liked and its mainly cause it takes me back to a time when me and my brother were outside playing in the cold and we ran around with covers to stay warm .

Final Exam Study Guide
1) First you click the SERVER DRIVE then you wait for the little screen to pop up okay it then got to my computer. When you get there go to the folder for Photo J and find your folder and open it.
2) We use blogger to post all the things we need like are assignments and to post the pictures we have shot.
3) All you need is an oatmeal can, Two pieces of black construction tape and black tape to cover the top side of the lid and bottom you also need to blackout the inside of the cans wall and floor. Once that's done you close it cut about an inch square out of the can and open it again and fill the hole with a thin layer of Foil then poke one hole through the foil, once that's done you can seal that foil strip off with a tape made flap. Once all these steps are done you have your pinhole camera.
4) There is light sensitive paper inside the actual can once the light enters the can for however many seconds it takes a pic. Once closed the light is trapped within the can and it really just dies out after its shut leaving an unseen picture on the light sensitive white paper.
5a) Rule Of Thirds -Imagine that your image is divided into nine equal segments by two vertical and two horizontal lines. Try to position the most important elements in your scene along these lines, or at the points where they intersect.
5b) Balancing Elements -Balance the 'weight' of your subject by including another object of lesser importance to fill the space.
5c) Leading Lines -When we look at a photo our eye is naturally drawn along lines.
5d) Symmetry And Patterns - A pattern of something man made or even naturally caused.
5e) Viewpoint -Consider photographing from high above, down at ground level, from the side, from the back, from a long way away, from very close up, and so on.
5f) Background -To have a simple background or something that is very vibrant in the back
5g) Creating Depth - The trick with creating depth is to have different levels or boundaries before your actual subject.
5h) Framing - Framing is caused by either man made or natural things out in the world that is framing your subject.
5i) Cropping is caused when a person shoots a picture and either takes something out or moves the subject completely to a new shot but without taking another picture.
5j) Merger And Avoiding - Avoiding merger can be done by just making sure there is nothing sticking out of your subject that doesn't belong there.
6) It really creates a mood that cant be explained also it lets you get poses and facial expressions that you couldn't normally get in a regular shot.
7) bringing an album of pictures can tell all sorts of story's because they have so much to think on and you kind of feel in the rest with your own thoughts.
8)Multiple Pictures or Slideshow
9. You use the 5 W's and 1 H in the first sentence and explain what your looking at in the photo in the second sentence.
10. It shows the action the subject is doing.
11. In fashion photography theyre changing the image which is a bad thing to do because its not what really happened in the photo so its wrong to do it in regular photography too.
12. A portrait is a photo that has different objects in it and a self portrait is a picture of yourself or someone else.
13. A good portrait must include at least 4 of the rules of composition and be able to tell a story also.
14. Yearbooks have pictures of every student at the school and events that happened during the whole year and newspapers tell the daily news of your community or city.
DEFINITIONS

2. Shutter- The mechanical device that opens and closes when you take the photo.
3. Exposure- How long you leave the shutter speed on the image settings and the amount of light the aperture lets in.
4. F-stop- The setting on an adjustable aperture setting.
6. Negative- When the picture is in black and gray and the opposite of positive.
7. Positive- When the picture has color.
8. Contact sheet- The photographic image that you put your image on from the roll of film and usually comes out as negative.

Theme Parks
1) I would like to visit the park in Greenland because it just looks very scary and at the same time it looks like some things are still in tact plus dangerous.
3) The U.T. Tower, Submarine, Old House, The Woods
5) Because it has a dangerous fill to it and not only that you could find a lot of styles you could bump into. Like leading lines and viewpoint.
6) Well my location wouldn't be hard to find because the U.T. tower is in the middle of the city, so I'm guessing just a drive and take my camera and get ready to shoot.

My First Print
1) The picture's on the wall are really in focus cause you can really read the posters so I'll go with that as my sharp focus.
A) Most of the things are in focus there are very few things that aren't i really cant tell.
B)None
2) To me there is really good contrast as the pic goes up into the light it makes a smooth transition from dark to light.
3) Yes it followed all the rules and the way I took the pic was really good cause I feel I got a real good shot of real work and honesty because they didn't know I took it. My subject was the class as a whole so it really filled the frame.
4) There are few spots and it was most likely caused because of the drying process when i had to wipe it down.
5) No
6) Yes Sir they are
